Name
Sextus was a fairly common Roman given name (praenomen) while his surname seems to indicate he belonged to the Pomponia family (gens). Other writers have expressed a view that the name Sextus Pomponius was shared by another jurist, although Puchta suggested the assumption of two Pomponii was unsupported by the evidence.[2]
Works
S. Pomponius wrote a book on the law up to the time of Hadrian, known as the Enchiridion (Greek: Ἐγχειρίδιον, Enkheidírion, "Handbook").[3][4] A long excerpt of the work forms part of Justinian's Digest dealing with the origin of the Roman Constitution and various offices.
